problems downloading java in firefox

lakeApr 18 2011 — edited Apr 18 2011
My new forms install 11.1.1.4 will not work in firefox 3.6.16 . It wants to download jre 6.12:
http://java.sun.com/products/archive/j2se/6u12/index.html
However the download is immediately cancelled. If I tell it to resume it, it looks like it was downloaded but it is not there.

This is a problem I've had in recent times downloading anything from oracle and not just java There's something wrong with firefox vs oracle's web site. Sometimes you can use firefox sometimes you can't.

Anyway I got 6u24 installed but the test form does not recognize it because it is not 6.12. So this has got to be an faq how to
change the dependence on 6u12 to 6u24 (or better whatever the current version of java would be). I'm sorry to ask such a dumb
newbie question but if anyone knows how to change it I'd really appreciate it.

this does not work with firefox with 6u24, that's all I know. (the test form does work with chrome and with IE 8. BTW I found that if
you have this problem downloading any java with firefox, it is easier to download it with chrome. I see that chrome is very cognizant of
jre versions and there's a lot of confirming things on sun's website. So you can download and install java via chrome if the other avenues
are not working. (I'm getting a real java headache now. I think I'll work on something else :-)
